Disorderly Conduct in Pennsylvania
In Pennsylvania, disorderly conduct can include making obscene gestures, screaming, and urinating in public. Generally, disorderly conduct laws criminalize behavior that is likely to upset, anger, or annoy others. However, Pennsylvania's disorderly conduct law is not intended to criminalize
any behavior that is irritating or obnoxious, but only behavior that disrupts the peace and quiet of the community. Pennsylvania also has laws against disrupting meetings and rioting.
Disorderly Conduct
In Pennsylvania, a person commits the crime of disorderly conduct by:
- fighting or engaging in threatening or violent behavior
- making excessive noise
- using obscene language
- making an obscene gesture, or
- creating a dangerous or physically offensive condition without good reason.
In order to be convicted of disorderly conduct, the prosecutor must show that the defendant intended to cause "public inconvenience, annoyance or alarm," or disregarded the risk of inconveniencing, annoying, or upsetting others. Under this statute, "public" refers to any place that is open to the public, such as a park, school, or business, or even the streets of a gated neighborhood. For example, a person who walks through a public park surrounded by homes at night, yelling obscenities and upsetting nearby residents, could be arrested for disorderly conduct. A fraternity member who plays loud music late into the night, intentionally inconveniencing his neighbors could also arrested. However, two people who get into a fight in their own home have not committed disorderly conduct so long as they do not disturb people outside of the home. Disorderly conduct is punished more severely if the defendant causes harm or serious inconvenience or continues in his or her behavior after being asked to stop. (18 Pa. Con. Stat. § 5503.)
It is also a crime in Pennsylvania to:
- block a road, sidewalk, or other thoroughfare
- refuse an official request to move away from the scene of an emergency or stop blocking a highway or sidewalk or other thoroughfare, or
- disrupt or interrupt a lawful meeting or gathering.
(18 Pa. Con. Stat. § § 5507, 5508.) So, a person who yells and refuses to sit down or be quiet at a PTA meeting could be arrested and convicted of a crime, as could a person who refuses to move away from a fire after a being asked to do so by a police officer.
